How to fight a taller person if your short?

Question

How do u fight a person that is taller than you?? as he is taller he has a greater advantage on u right?...I was wondering whats the best way of fighting with someone that is taller than u??

Answer 1

Body punches. Why reach for his head when body shots are right there for the taking? Keep working the body and those shots will take a toll.

Answer 2

LOW BLOW:)

Answer 3

it is very difficult for a small short person to fight someone who is taller. the key is to be faster. there are some very powerful tools you can use all of which are used with inside fighting. slip punches and use the jab to close the distance. once you are inside disguise an overhand punches to the face by first fiercely attacking the body with hooks and uppercuts.

Answer 4

The key to fighting taller and longer-reaching opponents in the ring is to get inside and stay inside.  Your shorter arms will actually be an advantage at closer range, due to his longer arms not extending as far as yours when at equal distances.  His arms then won't be able to generate as much power as yours will.

If you're not an inside fighter, this makes things more difficult.  Usually the taller opponent will want to distance-fight with you as well, the only problem is that you're both using the same technique, but he has the advantage in his reach.  So with equal boxing skill, he'll have the upper hand.

So really, the best way to beat a taller guy is not play by his game, if his game is your game, then you have to change your game to suit him.  (ha say that 10 times fast)

Answer 5

Use your leverage. Take him down to the ground and pound him. If he is taller it means his reach is probably substantially longer and he will own you if you try to throw down standing up.

Answer 6

Remember this first, it is better to walk away from a fight then fighting itself. You stand a chance to get hurt bad. If all else fails and you have no choice but to defend your self a smaller person CAN defend against a larger person. A Sammler person can do take downs on a larger person better, you can get in close quicker, but again it' better to walk away from it all together. It does not matter what others may say about you or think about you. Its about being the better person... Let them look like the fool.

I hope this helped.

Answer 7

punch 'em in the nuts

Answer 8

A swift and powerful kick in the nuts, then run like h**l.

Answer 9

This is simple "The Kid"......the only rule in fighting is "winning". If this monster of a man approaches you, send a sidekick to his kneecap or a flying knee into the nuts. Upon his dropping to his knees, finish him off with a towering elbow drop to the head. Also, make sure to put one foot on top of him and showcase to other potential bullies that your a force to be reckoned with!

Answer 10

Bite his ankles. Ha! I got a thumbs down. Bite em extra hard. Leave teeth marks.

Answer 11

if the guy is bigger and stronger then try not to fight if he wanst to hurt you use a club or small knife sorry but he could kill you pretty easy unless you are a great fighter and most of us are not no matter what we think lol or lull him into a trap like wait I have a fake leg then punch him in the noise or kick him so hard in the innner thigh or shin then back up and let him chase you a little the hit again and again wear him down yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa go rocky

Answer 12

You cant rellay win, if hes taller than you because hes gonna have a better reach and faster, dont fight him ur gonna be doing something stupid his physical will naturally unbound urs.
